It was attached to that mail (the "may" was just because I tend to
forget to actually attach files, and if I add something like that, I'm
more likely to remember actually attaching the file before sending the
mail), something like "backporting fixes", sent on Dec 3, 3:51.

I'm just downloading the 50 MB installer thingy from ATi, I hope I can
install that manually to remove it all again when I'm done...

Oh, and why won't there be a 2.0.6 without the Radeon fix? Is it perfect
in all other ways? I think there should be a steady stream of 2.0.x
releases with small fixes or improvements until there is a 2.1 that can
be released, to keep the project appearing on news sites. By the way,
has someone submitted 2.0.5 to happypenguin.org and linuxgames.com yet?
It didn't appear there yet.
